[TB-team]

It feels like an age since The if people were paper arrived on Rack & Ruin, and I first heard the “Rotten Sugar” release. Well they are back, with just over 5 minutes of experimental noodling, entitled “Soul Beast”.


From the outset, you can tell that the guys involved here are keep to experiment with the twisted sounds of noise, and experimental electronica. Thestatic/metalic opener is almost “noise-lite” ©, the static background threatening to burst to the forefront, but never being allowed by the metalic blowing and swirling space sounds that dominate the front.


“Eaters” suits it’s title more than any other. The sampled loops, distorted to the max, but still giving off an air of consumption. The EP ends with “Cannabis for Cannibals”, a spaced out childlike burst of sounds, that could be an entire episode of The Moomins crammed into it’s 1 minute 25 seconds timeframe.


This EP once again shows that The if people were paper, are bursting with non-comforming ideas, that will either get them a cult following, or a swarm of detractors. Something that they would probably be very happy with!
